MAGDEN COMPUTER M1 available at www.amplifiedmotorsport.com

M.1b Performance Computer
This Performance Computer comes ready to show you a variety of data channels your vehicle has but which the factory doesn't show you. See some critical data channels that aren’t available with standard gauges. For example; Ignition Timing, Throttle Position and Air Intake temperature are just a few seen on most vehicles. Please check the application guide to confirm validation of your vehicle.

Choose your gauge layout and then choose which five data channels to view. Keep the customization going by choosing which skin to have on that layout. Don't stop there, now choose your indicator colors and even your gauge text color. You have many choices to pick from, so go ahead, get creative!

Packaged in a compact case, the installation is easy. Connect the four cables and you're ready to experience a new vehicle interface. No more cluttered interior or challenging installation to see data!

Glad to see this thread Lou. I sent you a PM awhile ago but didn't get one back and called the shop but no one picked up. I guess I can try again this week.

I was waiting to see how many more i should order. I know you were interested and at least 4 guys on the forum have already contacted me on getting one.

If you want to order them now, you can. As i've done in the past, i won't charge your credit card until we get the items in. I should be getting them in by this week. I just need to finalize how many orders i should be placing.

By the way, i forgot to mention that this can be moved and used on different cars with OBII harness, you can either use it with an independent monitor or if your car is equipped with one.

order away guys, you won't regret it

i'm guessing it's connected to the composite video connection of the nav screen. Which means you'd have to do a bypass if you wanted real time info while driving.

If we get any news from cobb on the AP coming available, I'm in for one.

I would also be interested if data can be pulled from this to send to technosquare or cobb for a custom map. A cigarette lighter is the power source. Can we please find another way to limit the amount of cables strung about. I would like one of these, but I want it to be completely stealth in the car(except the display of course.) sounds like you got a cable going to the obdII, cigarette lighter, and av inputs.

There is a way to keep everything stealth, you can hard wire the video output and the power source(cigarette lighter plug) execpt for the OBDII which you can run under the dash anyway.

As for COBB, if your in UTAH, please email joe@cobbtunning.com. They need a few more G37'S to test before they can release the AP

Hey Lou, what screen setting are you using for the best picture? I am wondering if you messed around with this yet instead of using the default.

I haven't had a chance to mess with mine. I'm using the G37 option under settings. When Jonathan was checking most of the screen settings on my car, they decided that the settings they saved under the G37 option under initial setting was the best fit for our screen. Is yours all done and working?

The bypass is not quite working yet. I will be taking it back to the shop that installed it for me early next week. Unfortunately I cannot do some of the setup stuff unless the bypass is in place like the gear ratio stuff.

This thing is GREAT from the little that I have seen. A review will be up as soon as the bypass is corrected. I don't really want to write a review until I have seen it in action and have tested the logging, etc.
